Developing a .NET CRUD webapp on Mac using Rider, ASP.NET + EF Core and PgSQL.

Deploying on Debian Linux behind a reverse proxy.

It's a comfy life. Everything (more so than the Java ecosystem) just works.

That said, I still have that nagging fear that Microsoft will do a Microsoft in some way and I'll be forced back onto Windows with all its attendant horrors.

This[1] comes under "doing a Microsoft right" ? It is my belief that M$ is intentionally not improving dotnet watch.

The current implementation is not as good as what you get from javascript world.

Some other concerns are raised here. E.g. I wasn't aware that the debugger was licenced restrictively and not under the same permissive licence as the rest of .NET Core.

Well I am quite far into this project using .NET. Hopefully it doesn't get worse.

I have a feeling that Microsoft has “let go” of Windows. It has expanded far beyond it and no longer even needs to depend on it as a separate revenue stream.
